I was requested by some of the ladies to put a piece of cotton in
my ears,"" wrote Ann Raney Coleman, describing her experiences in a
ditch during the Civil War while Yankee shells exploded around her,
""but this I declined to do as I would rather hear all that was
going on."" Such charmingly understated comments abound in
Victorian Lady on the Texas Frontier, the journal of a spunky girl
who left England with her mother and sister to come to Texas in
1832. Anne Raney Coleman had a knack for being in the center of the
action: the early preparations for the Texas struggle for
independence, the Runaway Scrape, and the Federal attack on the
Texas Gulf Coast in the Civil War. While boarding with Jane Long,
""the Mother of Texas,"" Mrs. Coleman associated with the McNeels
and other leaders of the province, and she wrote of her experiences
in a clear, energetic style - painting her characters sharply and
with decided opinions about them all.
